‘’Poštuju život i svakom djetetu se raduju’’
(Helena Anušić)
OCTOBER 12, 2014
Stewards of freedom,
servants of God
(by Dan Conway)
Život ’’na kraju svijeta’’ mogla bi
se geografski opisati biskupija Auki
ŽUPNIKOVA na Salomonskim Otocima u kojoj
djeluje misionarka milosrdnica s.
PORUKA
Jasna Plavac. Ona je nedavno stigla
u Hrvatsku. Tu će provesti ljeto i u rujnu se vratiti u misiju na Salomonske
Otoke, koji se nalaze na jugozapadu Tihoga oceana, oo 1800
km sjeveroistoćno od Australije i pripadaju grupi najslabije
razvijenih država: od 951 otoka naseljeno ih je samo 350.
Govoreći o svom životnom pozivu, ističe da se ništa ne
događa bez Božje volje. ’’Oduvijek sam se htjela posvetiti
siromašnima i djeci. Molila sam se da naša družba, osim
Paragvaja i Urugvaja, dobije još jednu misiju i moja želja se
ostvarila 2011. godine’’, rekla je misionarka.
‘’ Najprije smo došli u Honiaru, gdje nas je dočekao generalni vikar Moises, i tamo smo ostale četiri dana. Potom
smo se uputile na otok Malaitu. Zatekli smo kuće napravljene
na stupovima na pijesku, pokrivene palminim lišćem. Dočekali
su nas s vijencima od cvijeća koje su nam stavili oko vrata.
Tamo smo prenoćili i onda se uputili u Bumu, centar u kojemu i
danas djelujemo, koji je okružen džunglom.
Biskupija Auki ima 13 župa i s Jasna Plavac u Bumu je
došla na poziv mjesnoga biskupa kako bi pomogla u bolnici
te da sa svojim poslanjem unese duh sv. Vinka Paulskoga.
Uz nju, u Bumi su sada još tri misionarke iz Hrvatske: s.
Slavka Bogdan, s. Augustina Lipovec i s. Ruža Rajić.
’’Biskup nas je pozvao da pomažemo bolesnima. Ja sam
inače medicinska sestra, tako da posjećujemo bolesnike u
njihovim domovina, vozimo ih u bolnicu koja je udaljena 30
kilometara, a nerijetko nam se zbog loših prometnica događa da nam trudnice tijekom vožnje do Aukija i rode u automobilu.’’ U Bumi imaju malu ambulantu, a automobil im je
darovala Nacionalna uprava Papinskih misijskih dijela u
Hrvatskoj akcijom MIVA (Misijska vozila). Potrebe za volonterima postoje, ističe s. Jasna, dodajući da su najpotrebniji
oni medicinske struke jer provincija Malaita ima samo tri
liječnika.
Govoreći o stanovništvu, istaknula je da je riječ o jednom od nasiromašnijih naroda svijeta, ali i najsretnijih.
’’Miroljubiv su narod, vrlo su opušteni i u njih nema užurbanosti. U prometu su vrlo kulturni, kao i u ophođenju s drugima.’’ Dodaje da mise slave svaki dan, a za svetkovine misna slavlja traju i do tri sata. U prinosu darova nerijetko uz
kruh i vino prinose i plodove zelje, ali i domaće životinje.
(nastavlja se)
Something, especially powerful
is expressed in the famous saying
of St. Thomas More, “I die the
king’s faithful servant, but God’s
first.” Most of us know the story
of St. Thomas’ martyrdom. He was executed because he opposed King Henry VIII’s decision to divorce his wife and, in the process, declare himself
head of the Church in England. Thomas More opposed this double divorce, and paid dearly for it.
The memory of this one man’s act of civil disobedience is recalled at this time of year—along with
the witness of other great religious figures who remained faithful in the face of persecution by political power—because the Church in the United
States once again observed, on June 21 to July 4,
the “Fortnight for Freedom.
The Fortnight for Freedom, which this year focuses on the freedom to serve the poor and vulnerable in accord with human dignity and the
Church’s teaching, should be an opportunity to
pray, learn and speak out. It should be a time when
we grow in our awareness of the stewardship responsibility we have for the gift of freedom.
We believe that every human person has been
endowed by the Creator God with an inalienable right
to freedom. No government or external power has the
right to restrict or remove the basic human right to
freedom of thought, religious belief or expression. The
limits placed on us by the authorities that govern our
society are intended to preserve and defend out Godgiven freedom, not to impair or abolish it.
As in the day of England’s Henry VIII, political
forces here at home and throughout the world have
attempted to sweep aside, or effectively ignore, the
religious dimension of human freedom. For many,
personal freedom no longer is rooted in religious
convictions or in an objective criteria for moral
conduct. Too often today, freedom is seen as the
right to do as we please regardless of the consequences. Even more, freedom is recognized as the
right to “go with the flow,” to do whatever everyone
else is doing, and to embrace what Pope Emeritus
Benedict XVI called the “culture of relativism.”
Pope Francis has challenged this view—not by
using the Church’s moral teaching as a club to
drive people away, but by giving strong personal
witness to the virtues of humility, charity and the
freedom to serve (rather than be served).
